This informative training will offer your employees insight and understanding about the complexities of harassment. In addition to sexual harassment, this training discusses the other types of harassment in our diverse workplaces, liability issues, and how to prevent any form of harassment from occurring.
It's About Respect: Recognizing Harassment in a Diverse Workplace is available in an Office Version as well as an Industrial Version to better suit the needs of your organization.
Witness the examples of various harassments through different flashback scenarios and watch four employees come to understand the painful effects of harassment. Through this storyline, viewers will see how harassment can take the form of jokes, negative stereotyping, hostile acts or simple thoughtless comments and how the outcome is inevitably the same. In addition to the costs associated with legal liability, harassment has a profound negative effect on individuals, inflicting emotional stress, lowering employee morale and reducing productivity at work.
It's About Respect will raise awareness regarding harassment and explain the do's and do not's of creating a respectful workplace for everyone.
Identify the various types and forms of harassment.
Understand the financial and hard-to-measure costs of harassment.
Follow practical guidelines to prevent harassment.
Respond if they witness or become victims to harassment.
I really liked this straightforward, candid, and intelligent discussion about harassment. The employee reactions and interactions were realistic and I think it's likely viewers might see themselves in one of these trainees.
Realistic dialogue and intelligent discussion about a sensitive and emotional topic.
I thought that the program was well received and the audience was able to use the information obtained in their everyday work environment. It was an effective, user friendly progrma that netted relife results.
: This video did a great job of providing some new "perspectives" as stated in the title. The scenes were believeable and the actors made the information interesting and allowed the viewer to possibly see themselves in some of the situations shown in the scenes. Visual examples are always more easily understood than just telling an audience what they need to know about a subject. It might have been helpful to state the items in the company policy also at the beginning of the video, but perhaps the handout lists those items so that the viewers have something to take with them to re-emphasize areas of concern.


Two of Walton County's football teams debuted their 2017 squads against each other in the Kickoff Classic this past Friday night as Freeport took a 21-7 road victory over South Walton in the exhibition tune-up for both squads.
The preseason contest, played on an unpleasantly humid night in Santa Rosa Beach, does not count toward either teams' official win-loss record.
With varsity starters only playing in the first half, Freeport quarterback Zack Johnson rushed for 110 yards and the Bulldogs garnered two short touchdown runs by K'wan Powell and Shannon Carswell to give the Bulldogs a 14-7 halftime lead.
On the game's opening drive, Johnson connected with Hunter Clark on a pair of third down passes for 14 and nine yards before a 39-yard scamper by the senior gave the Orange and Blue possession at the South Walton 11. Three short runs by Powell set up a 4th-and-3 from the 5-yard line with new head coach Shaun Arntz calling for Carswell to use his 6-foot-5, 300-pound frame to get the first down. Powell, a highly touted ninth grader who Freeport fans have been itching to see in high school action, scored his first varsity touchdown one play later with a short lunge into the endzone to cap a drive that took nearly seven minutes off the clock.
South Walton answered their rivals quickly as quarterback Cade Rowland found Jaden Page for a 24-yard reception on the Seahawks' first play from scrimmage, giving the gray-clad home squad possession at the Freeport 46. Following a third-and-five conversion on a 6-yard run by Daniel Leuze, Rowland found Tanner Kotowske for 14 yards, and escaped the grasp of several Bulldog defenders on the following play before connecting with Page for a 10-yard reception to the Bulldogs 4-yard line. Rowland ran it in on the next play and the PAT tied the game at 7-all.
Johnson responded by scurrying for 53 yards on the sixth play of the following drive, setting up a first-and-goal from the South Walton 1-yard line. Carswell returned at running back and plunged in one play later to give the varsity Bulldogs a 14-7 lead.
The subsequent South Walton possession started well as Rowland tossed a 15-yard pass to Page and Leuze crossed midfield with a 9-yard run that set the home offense up at the Freeport 47.
The Bulldog defense stiffened on the next five plays, knocking the Seahawk offense backwards three times while forcing an incomplete pass thanks to great coverage by cornerback Clayton Bartlett with David Ramshur later forcing a fumble.
Johnson and company took over at the South Walton 31-yard line but only managed one first down. After a 37-yard field goal attempt by Tragen Appelman fell short, South Walton took over at their 20-yard line. Again, the sputtering South Walton offense started well, procuring a 19-yard run by Leuze and a pass interference call that gave the newly reclassified 4A program possession at the Freeport 47. But three consecutive sacks by Ramshur, Austin Johnson, and Bailey Davis forced Coach Phil Tisa's crew to punt it back to Freeport with 2:42 left in the half.
After a holding call helped push the Bulldog offense back to their own 15-yard line, it looked like South Walton would have one last chance to tie the varsity contest before the junior varsity and second stringers took over. However, Powell broke loose around the right side of the offensive line for 26 yards and helped to drain the clock after rushing three more times for 18 yards, giving Freeport's varsity a 14-7 win of the first half.
In the second half, South Walton's junior varsity and second string generated only one first down while Freeport's B-squad dominated the yardage and time of possession. Freshman Jarrett Dunwald scored the lone touchdown with a 5-yard run in the fourth quarter while fellow running back Austin Johnson rumbled for 58 yards on just three carries while also forcing and recovering a fumble on defense. Reserve cornerback Branden Haberek snagged an interception that was nullified following an unsportsmanlike penalty.
KEY STATS: Johnson 2/5 passing for 23 yards with both completions to Justin Clark while he rushed nine times for 110 yards. K'wan Powell 14 rushes for 71 yards and one touchdown. Carswell had two rushes for five yards and one touchdown. Rowland, 4/7 passing, 63 yards. Page had four catches for 49 yards. Kotowske 1/14. Leuze had six rushes for 41 yards.

Q: Add UIBarButtonItem to UIViewController pushed onto a UINavigation controller I am trying to push a UIViewController onto a navigation controller and then add a UIBarButtonItem to the nav bar so i can use it to display a count down timer.
UINavigationController *navController = [[Session sharedInstance] getNavigationController];
GamePlayViewController *gameController = [[GamePlayViewController alloc] initWithNibName:@"GamePlayViewController" bundle:nil ];

UIBarButtonItem *timerBtn = [[UIBarButtonItem alloc] initWithBarButtonSystemItem:UIBarButtonSystemItemFlexibleSpace target:nil action:nil];

gameController.navigationItem.rightBarButtonItems = [NSArray arrayWithObjects:timerBtn, nil];

[navController pushViewController:gameController animated:YES];

When i use the code above its does not work. I also tried doing this from the ViewDidload method in the controller itself but no dice. I even tried to use rightBarButtonItem but get an error stating
 "to uncaught exception 'NSInvalidArgumentException', reason: 'Fixed and flexible space   items not allowed as individual navigation bar button item. Please use the leftBarButtonItems (that's plural) property.'
*** First throw call stack:"

UIBarButtonItem *timerBtn = [[UIBarButtonItem alloc] initWithBarButtonSystemItem:UIBarButtonSystemItemFlexibleSpace target:nil action:nil];

self.navigationItem.rightBarButtonItem = timerBtn;

A: If you go to IB and try to add a Flexible Space or Fixed Space, you will see the detail of these 2 objects that says that these 2 can only be added to a UIBarButtonItem that is being added to a UIToolBar, and not to a Navigation Bar!
So I suggest you change your code to the following to start with:
UIBarButtonItem *timerBtn = [[UIBarButtonItem alloc] initWithBarButtonSystemItem:UIBarButtonItemStylePlain target:nil action:nil];

throwring your shoes in a bin is like discarding your way, or direction in life. Going back without the shoes may be like trying to get back to where you had been in your walk through life, but you seem more humbled or something like that as you are without your shoes. You seem to be looking for a direction in life, and the couple kissing may represent that you feel alone as you are not the one engaging as a complete person(without your spouse/girl friend, etc.). Even though the birds seem happy in the trees that represent lofty growth, success, or creation, you feel sad. Of course!
Also, the couple represent communication with each other, so are you communicating well in your life, work, schooling, etc.? You must look into your own habits and feelings in life to see how you conduct yourself, or not, to see how you might be losing your way. I hope this helps.
Shoes in dreams mean a partner or couple.
To not wear shoes in a dream means he/she will be alone or without a relationship.
I looked at the couple, it was a fantasy from this prospective this hope will not be achieved.
deos this relate to that other dream .. of the glass on the path at night ???
try and keep your sanity ..
Seems to me that TLC's interp is very good.
And, Yes- it does appear to be related to the broken glass dream.
I suspect the broken glass represents shattered dreams and a heartbreak.
In both dreams- you are barefoot and profoundly sad. It's almost like saying you are a 'tenderfoot' or tender- afoot; afraid to move foreword? You hear the birds chirping, see lovers kissing- seems you are aware that there is more to life than your current sadness that has you stalled and, you are on your way to retrieve your shoes.

Thomas Gautier (* 2. März 1638 im Piemont; † 27. Mai 1709 in Marburg) war ein französischer, später in Hessen tätiger evangelischer Theologe. Er war Prediger der Waldenser-Gemeinde in Marburg und Professor an der dortigen Universität.

Leben
Geboren im Waldensertal Val Cluson oder Pragelas als Sohn eines königlichen Notars, studierte er Rhetorik, Philosophie und ab 1661 in Genf Theologie. Danach war er als reformierter Prediger in Fenestrelle tätig, wurde 1674 der Häresie sowie der unerlaubten Einladung ausländischer Prediger angeklagt und war einige Monate inhaftiert. Als die Verfolgung seiner Gemeinden nicht aufhörte, reiste er zu deren Verteidigung nach Paris. Er hatte jedoch bei den Ministern keinen Erfolg, die das Edikt von Nantes eher restriktiv auslegten.

1678 wurde er Professor an der reformierten Akademie von Die in der Dauphiné, die aber 1684 geschlossen wurde. Gautier wurde vom Bischof von Grenoble, dem nachmaligen Cardinal la Camus, zu einem Religionsgespräch bestellt. Da er seinem Bekenntnis treu blieb, verbannte man ihn aus Frankreich. Er wanderte nun (wohl mit einem Zug von Waldensern) nach Zürich, wo er 14 Monate blieb, und folgte 1687 einem Ruf an die hessische Universität Marburg als Theologieprofessor. Er veranlasste den Nachzug weiterer Flüchtlinge  und übernahm die Verpflichtung, als Prediger für die in Marburg eingewanderten französischen Hugenotten jeden Sonntag Gottesdienst zu halten. Über die Umgangsformen in dieser Gemeinde hatte er einen Konflikt mit dem ebenfalls an der Hochschule tätigen Physiker Denis Papin. Im Hintergrund standen auch Meinungsunterschiede zur Lehre von René Descartes.

Zu Gautiers Marburger Professorenkollegen der Theologie zählten Johann Georg Brand und Philipp Johann Tilemann, zu den bekannteren seiner Schüler Johann Christian Kirchmayer und Johann Joachim Schröder. Die von Gautier hinterlassenen Schriften sind vorwiegend Disputationen zur Dogmatik. 1707 war er Rektor der Universität. Auch hatte Gautier von 1687 bis 1709 die Position des Ephorus der Hessischen Stipendiatenanstalt inne.

Als Seelsorger der Waldensergemeinde trug er entscheidend zur geordneten Ansiedlung der Flüchtlinge aus dem Val Cluson bei, die südlich von Marburg die verfallene Wirtschaft Hof Frauenberg zum Lehen erhielten. Der hessische Landgraf Karl förderte die Einwanderung aus Piemont, die – ähnlich wie Preußen mit dem Edikt von Potsdam – nach den Zerstörungen des Krieges zur Neugründung landwirtschaftlicher und gewerblicher Betriebe führen sollte. Die Einwanderer erhielten durch Gautiers Bemühungen verschiedene Privilegien und Steuernachlässe für 10 Jahre.

Jordan Stephens Named C-USA Baseball Pitcher of the Week
March 12, 2012 by Bellaire Essentials Staff Leave a Comment
Rice freshman pitcher Jordan Stephenshas been named the Conference USA Pitcher of the Week for March 5-11 the league office announced Monday morning from its headquarters in Irving, Tex. East Carolina's Drew Reynolds was named the C-USA Hitter of the Week.
Stephens pitched 6.2 shutout innings in the finale of the three-game weekend road series at Stanford on Sunday (Mar. 11) to earn his second career victory. The standout from Alvin, Tex., allowed just three singles and three walks while posting two strikeouts in keeping No. 2 Stanford, a team that had averaged 14 runs per game on Sundays (the final game of weekend series), off the scoreboard for 6.2 frames. He held 26 opposing hitters to a composite .163 batting average. Stephens has in fact now thrown 13.2 consecutive scoreless innings dating back to March 4 where he was named the Most Outstanding Player of the annual Houston College Classic.
The C-USA honor is the first of his career for Stephens. He is the third Owl to earn a Hitter/Pitcher of the week honor from the conference office. The senior duo of Michael Fuda and Matthew Reckling were named the C-USA Hitter & Pitcher of the Week for Feb. 27, respectively.
Drew Reynolds led East Carolina in hitting on the week, batting .636 (7-for-11) with a home run, two runs scored and three multi-hit games at the DRASH Alabama Baseball Classic, where the Pirates posted a 3-0 record.
The Owls (13-4) have closed out a recent rugged stretch of playing eight of the last nine games played away from home. Rice now begins a six-game homestand at Reckling Park on March 13. The Blue & Gray hosts national power Arizona in a two-game midweek set on Tues.-Wed. Start times against the Wildcats are set for 6 pm on Tuesday and 6:30 pm Wednesday. Both contests will be televised by CSS Sports.

Barren hillsides could once again be cloaked in beautiful evergreen Himalayan Oaks.
The Himalayan Evergreen oak has proven to be a very tough, resilient tree in dry soil locations and extremely fast growing in areas with good rainfall and free draining soil.
They do not appear to suffer from any serious pests or diseases. The odd leaf roller noted and in some situations leaf miner, but nothing of any consequence. Himalayan oaks are fast growing, with examples of 12 year old trees that are 8m in height. Mature oaks grow to 10 – 15m and can age to 200 years.
From experience gained over the last 20yrs, this tree has almost unlimited value.
At night the oak roots continue to absorb water from deeper layers in the soil. The water then gets released by the shallow roots into the shallow soil layers, making water available to shallow rooted plants. This provides a significant source of water for shallow-rooted plants.
The trees with their strong, deep, root system have proven to be excellent at land stabilisation moderating water absorption and protecting precious topsoil from being washed away. Soil protection and the introduction of precious water can reverse the effects of land degradation, turning it once again into a thriving eco-system.
While the oak growth rates are moderate, it still sequesters carbon in the ecosystem. The oak produces large quantities of microbial biomass or bacteria and fungi. This releases carbon which leaks into the soil building up soil organic carbon. Over time, the oak population becomes dense within a fairly small area and this in combination with the high soil carbon, makes the total ecosystem carbon very high.
Himalayan Oaks have been used successfully as shelter belts in kiwifruit orchards. They require minimal trimming or root pruning in contrast to the traditional Casuarina or Willow which are high maintenance.
The wood is very dense possibly making it ideal for veneer or furniture timber.
If seedlings can be protected from grazing goats and cattle and mature trees protected from harvesting, the positive impact on the environment from reforestation will be immense. Barren hillsides could once again be cloaked in beautiful evergreen Himalayan Oaks.
The most valuable aspect of the Himalayan Oak, is its ability to bring back the water – quickly.
The deep root system brings water up to the surface and helps prevent erosion.

Whether you're aware of it or not, the service industry is all around us. From lawn care to plumbing to graphic design and more, just about anything where somebody does work for you is part of the service industry. One of the biggest issues with being a part of the service industry is getting all parties involved to understand the value of time, and that time spent needs to be compensated.
There are things that we all hate to do: mowing the lawn, cleaning, shopping, car repairs, etc. Or maybe you don't hate these things, which is okay too. The question becomes how do you decide if you should do these kinds of things yourself, or if you should pay someone to do them for you. The simplest solution to this question is to do the math, and figure out what your time is worth.
Think of it this way: you might be an hourly worker, who makes a cool $25 an hour. This is, at a basic level, what your time is worth, and can be your baseline for calculating the answer to the question above.
Let's suppose you need your lawn mowed. You've got a couple acres of land to mow, and overall, it will take you around two hours to complete. That means that, without extraneous variables, to mow your lawn costs you $50. This is where you decide if finding someone to do the service for you is worth it for you, by seeing if you can find someone to finish the task (in this case, mowing your lawn) for under $50. If you can, and you believe the job will be done up to your standards, it's definitely worth a smaller portion of your time to find this service industry professional and hire them to complete the service.
Unfortunately, it's not always a matter of dollars, cents, and time. Maybe you have all the extra time in the world (say, you work from home or make your own schedule). You've done the math based on your wages, and financially it makes little sense for you to pay someone to mow your lawn, but you just really hate mowing the lawn. So, from a quality of life standpoint, it might make sense for you to hire someone to mow the lawn, even if it's not quite as financially viable as doing it yourself. This is okay, too.
Now, how do we apply this to the service industry? Well, for starters, it's vital to understand that everyone and every service company values their time in a similar way to the mathematical method above. For instance, here at Armor, we offer our services at a base-level of $120 an hour. Plainly put, this means that for every hour any of our employees work, they should be able to bring in $120 of raw income. Now, you might be thinking to yourself that this number seems high or even unreasonable, but there's a reason for it.
When it comes to a business, the other way to value your time is based on the employees' skill set. If the employee is trained, has certifications, has experience, or a plethora of other qualifiers, then their time is arguably worth more than someone who is entry level. I mean, this is the reason that employees get raises from their companies as they develop their position and become more efficient. This is one of the major factors businesses use in determining their time's value and is the reason that Armor's hourly rate is $120.
That hourly rate can be broken down to value each-and-every minute of our technicians' time. With some quick math ($120/60min), we see that each minute is valued at $2. This is an important thing to understand, especially in the service industry. Many people aren't aware that each of those minutes is something that CAN and SHOULD BE charged for. The employees took the time to gain the skills and become more efficient, and you're asking them to accomplish a task within their skill set, so their time should be valued.
This leads to another misconception about the service industry: time spent talking, advising, and answering questions is also a portion of that hourly rate, even if it seems like it shouldn't be. If you walk into a roofing company and begin to ask them the ins-and-outs of how to do a roof correctly, what materials to use, best practices etc., they're probably going to charge you. This might seem ridiculous, or downright like they're taking money that isn't theirs from you, but think about it: if they advise you on the best way to accomplish the service tasks for which they get paid, they're probably not going to get hired by you to accomplish this job. You might very well take what they've taught you and try to do it yourself. Sure, maybe the quality of work won't be the same because you aren't the professional. Whether you intended to or not, you took money out of that business's pocket, and therefore, money out of their employees' pockets, which they use to feed their families and afford necessities to live comfortably.
Now, this isn't to say that the service professionals aren't there to assist you. These people are supposed to be some of the leaders in their industry, with the knowledge that takes real-world experience and training to receive. Most of the time, these professionals are more than willing to help with a few questions or a quick advising on what you should do. But consumers should be aware that these companies get paid for the knowledge they have, their ability to apply it, and they very well might ask you to pay for additional advising passed what they are comfortable giving out for free.
What this article culminates to is the idea that everyone has a value on their time. Whether your employer sets that for you, or you have another way of coming about what each hour of your day is worth, we all have an idea of what we are comfortable valuing our time at, and we all know what we will turn down if we are offered it (who wants to work for $0.07/hour, right?). This is true when you walk into a shop for a service as well, from the consulting about the problem to intake to fixing the problem, each moment of this process takes somebody's time, and they have every right to ask for and receive compensation for their time, however minuscule the task may seem. If you as a consumer aren't comfortable compensating someone for all of their time, it might be time to reconsider employing a service company to complete the task for you, and you might rather do the task yourself.
Time is our most finite resource, with each and every one of us having a limited supply. We should all be able to feel like our time is well-spent, well-compensated, and shouldn't need to feel like getting value out of our time is a chore. If you don't feel like your time is being fairly compensated, then it's probably time to find another way to be more adequately fulfill your time.
Do you agree with this article? Did I miss something vital? Let us know on our social media what your thoughts are on the value of time, this article, or anything else! Feel free to comment on this post on Facebook or Twitter, and we'll be sure to engage in a dialog with you!


Snack time just got a lot more interesting with the entry of Jollibee Crispy Wings. Before anyone starts having deja vu about Chili Wings, this is an entirely different product in terms of taste and texture. This I got to personally experience today when I was invited along with other bloggers to be part of its launching which I believe was simultaneously happening in several other branches as well.
Mr. Kenneth Mariano, Marketing Manager of Jollibee, along with other marketing officers, graciously answered all our questions with regards to their new product. Mr. Mariano explained to us that the reason they they decided to come out with the Jollibee Crispy Wings is because they believe that the potentials of chicken as a food choice have not been maximized in the snack-time area. Also, they are offering it with an entirely different flavor from that of their best-selling Chicken Joy.
Crispy Wings are marinated in a special seasoning and then fried to a delicious crisp. The most interesting aspect of this chicken dish is the interplay of a softer inner texture and the outer crispy texture. Adding further flavor interest is the sweet chili dip that comes with it.
Since it is primarily offered as a snack fare, the usual serving consists of two pieces of Jollibee Crispy Wings with regular fries. However, rice can also be served in lieu of the fries. The cost is P 70 and a regular-sized softdrink comes with it for an additional P 10. A pack of 6 costs P 170 while a 12-piece bucket costs P 340.
There was one particular reason why we were invited to come on a Friday at about 3 in the afternoon. For the whole month of October, Jollibee is serving free Crispy Wings to all dining customers every Fridays from 3 to 4 pm. Aptly called Jollibee's Crispy Wings Hour, customers are treated to free sampling of the new chicken dish. There are about 120 participating stores nationwide.
Like most festive occasions, this event has its own star-power courtesy of Channel 5 talent Rodjun Cruz and Jollibee himself. Rodjun danced at the beginning and again towards the end with Jollibee, along with Jollibee crew members who I seriously thought were professional back-up dancers because of their dancing which were so in sync with the two main stars. It was quite pleasing to see how Rodjun freely interacted with excited fans, having no air whatsoever in spite of his obvious popularity.
Not to be outdone is Jollibee whose unexpected presence created so much buzz that we had to stop our interview with Mr. Mariano because we just had to have our pictures taken with the famous mascot. I'm sure Mr. Mariano understands fully well how Jollibee creates so much excitement even among those who are not exactly young like us. And so we got our photo wish and had a bucket of Crispy Wings to bring home to our family as well for the ultimate taste test.
In a family like us which has young children, their approval always matters when it comes to food. It is not as if we can go our separate ways when we want to eat out. We as parents usually have to give in to their preference or else end up with disgruntled youngsters who definitely are not fun to be with on a family's day out.
As food stores like Jollibee continue to provide more choices, they end up actually catering to the taste of every member of the family. This makes it a lot easier for a family to decide where to eat. Jollibee has long been an automatic choice for children and adults are fast discovering that they too can go for such choice. As I watched my children eat the Jollibee Crispy Wings I brought home, I am pretty sure of what they are going to order the next time we eat out.
That said, I think customers can benefit from more food choices so to Jollibee and the rest, keep it coming!

UN calls on Myanmar to halt excessive force after media reports five killed – The Himalayan Times – Nepal's No.1 English Daily Newspaper
https://thehimalayantimes.com/world/un-calls-on-myanmar-to-halt-excessive-force-after-media-reports-five-killed
The United Nations has called for Myanmar to hold to account anyone using excessive force against unarmed civilians after security forces rammed a car into an anti-coup protesters killing five of them, according to media and witnesses.
Photographs and videos posted on social media showed a speeding vehicle crashing through a group of anti-coup protesters on Sunday in the main city of Yangon and bodies lying on the road. Witnesses told Reuters dozens had been injured.
"Those responsible for the use of excessive and disproportionate use of force against unarmed civilians must be held to account," Ramanathan Balakrishnan, the U.N resident coordinator in Myanmar, said in a statement.
The Myanmar Now news portal said the incident occurred minutes after a "flash mob" of people protesting against a Feb. 1 military coup had formed. As well as at least five deaths, 15 had also been arrested, it said.
The state-run Global New light of Myanmar newspaper said security forces dispersed an "unlawful riot" and arrested eight protesters. It said three people had been injured but did not mention any deaths and said those arrested would face legal action.
The U.S embassy said in a statement it was "horrified by reports that security forces opened fire against, ran over, and killed several peaceful protesters".
Anti-military protests have not stopped despite the killing of more than 1,300 people since the February overthrow of an elected government led by Nobel laureate Aung San Suu Kyi and the return of military rule.
One of the protesters on Sunday said he had fallen after being hit by a vehicle before fleeing.
"A soldier beat me with his rifle but I defended and pushed him back. Then he immediately shot at me as I ran away in a zig-zag pattern," the protester, who declined to be identified for security reasons, told Reuters by telephone.
The car occupied by soldiers hit the mob from behind, two witnesses said. Soldiers chased the scattering protesters arresting and beating some.
Some were hurt with head wounds and left unconscious, according to the witnesses.
A military spokesman did not respond to attempts by Reuters to reach him for comment on the incident.
Previously, the military has said protesters who have been killed instigated violence. It says it staged the coup because an election in November last year won by Suu Kyi's party was rigged.
The election commission at the time dismissed the assertion.
Suu Kyi, 76, faces a dozen legal cases against her including incitement and violations of COVID-19 protocols. Her supporters say the charges are politically motivated.

Adaora Ukoh has somehow grown above the level of a budding actress in the movie industry.
And since she became a known face, one scandal or the other have trailed her.
It was said that she was the one who 'whispered' to Ini Edo, the actress, that Uche Jombo had a bet that Ini's marriage was not going to be a success.
It was alleged the so-called gossip brought a terrible friction between Uche and Ini, who were, before then, best of friends.
However, Adaora told http://nollywoodgists.com that she never mentioned anything like that to anybody, let alone Ini.
Though gist has it that Adaora and Uche no longer talk since the gossip issue came up, the actress said she was not in enmity with anybody.
Despite all the scandals, Adaora said she remained undaunted.

Q: How to disable overlay check box after a certain zoom level? How do I disable a particular overlay checkbox in the Openlayers Layerswitcher?

A: There is a layer property, displayInLayerSwitcher but it makes the entire layer dissaper instead of simply disableing the checkbox.
However, there are always work arounds:
DEMO

You can work that functionality into the layer class prototype like so:
OpenLayers.Layer.prototype.disableInSwitcher = function (disable) {

    if (disable) {

        if (!this.disabledInSwitcher) {
            var lSwitcher = this.map.getControlsByClass("OpenLayers.Control.LayerSwitcher")[0];

            for (var i in lSwitcher.dataLayers) {
                if (lSwitcher.dataLayers[i].layer.name == this.name) {
                    var attr = document.createAttribute("disabled");
                    attr.value = "disabled";
                    lSwitcher.dataLayers[i].inputElem.attributes.setNamedItem(attr);
                }
            }
            this.disabledInSwitcher = true;
        }
    } else {

        if (this.disabledInSwitcher) {
            var lSwitcher = this.map.getControlsByClass("OpenLayers.Control.LayerSwitcher")[0];

            for (var i in lSwitcher.dataLayers) {
                if (lSwitcher.dataLayers[i].layer.name == this.name) {
                    lSwitcher.dataLayers[i].inputElem.attributes.removeNamedItem("disabled");
                    console.log("here");
                }
            }
            this.disabledInSwitcher = false;
        }
    }
};

Then register the zoomend event like so:
map.events.register('zoomend', map, handleZoom);

And handle that event:
var handleZoom = function (event) {

    if (map.getZoom() > 2) {
        myFirstLayer.disableInSwitcher(true);
        mySecondLayer.disableInSwitcher(false);
    } else {
        myFirstLayer.disableInSwitcher(false);
        mySecondLayer.disableInSwitcher(true);
    }
}

Garbage from Asia has inundated an island in the middle of the Atlantic
Researchers from Canada and Africa have found a massive amount of plastic bottles, originating form Asia, mainly from China, on Inaccessible Island, located in the South Atlantic Ocean. The bottles were probably discarded into the water and then washed up on the island from cargo ships passing the region.
The island is considered a World Heritage site, but the huge amount of waste is increasingly causing problems. An analysis of several thousand pieces of garbage by scientists at the University of Cape Town (UCT) has shown that plastic bottles are the most frequent type of waste, and their number has been increasing at an annual rate of 14.7 percent since the 1980's.
According to a study published in the Proceedings of the National Academy of the Sciences of the USA (PNAS), researchers had previously thought that most of the waste originates from the mainland, but it seems the theory is about to be refuted.
The plastic waste washed up on Inaccessible Island originate from Asia, primarily China, and the analysis also shows that they are relatively new, so they couldn't have reached those waters with oceanic currents. All that suggests that they are being thrown off ships. What's more, in the last year, commercial shipping from South America towards Asia has seen a significant upturn.
Researchers were surprised by the discovery in particular because the fleets of commercial ships have concluded an international agreement prohibiting the dumping of waste from ships Photo: UCT

Hungarian water treatment plant in Vietnam
It was announced in 2010 that the Vietnamese government would like to build a water treatment plant in Central Vietnam. Hungary is famous for its water treatment technology so they decided on a Hungarian partner.
The Biopolus BioMakery in the Netherlands
The Trappist monks of Koningshoeven Abbey have been brewing beer since 1881, and in recent years, they have also been baking bread and making chocolate, honey and cheese. The water to be treated is the wastewater from these brewing and manufacturing activities, together with the municipal wastewater from the Abbey and the visiting centre.
Over two tonnes of golf balls collected from Monterey Bay
Specialists believe almost 30 kilograms of microplastics has eroded from such a quantity of golf balls into the water.
Algal blooms grow more severe in the great lakes of the world
Over the last three decades, summer algal blooms in all large fresh-water lakes around the world have grown more severe – this is the conclusion of a global study, the longest ever of its kind, conducted by researchers from the Carnegie Institution for Science and NASA.
The Pacific cleanup may succeed
The system created by a Dutch inventor called System 101, whose first trial run, conducted a year ago, had failed, has started collecting plastic waste on the Pacific again.
Hungarian innovation to filter pharmaceutical residues
Many studies worldwide have shown that the active compounds of medications are released into the environment with wastewater and can easily be reintroduced into the human food chain from there. Filtering these residues out is an increasingly acute concern, but, thankfully, the world of science has already responded to the problem.
Pharmaceutical residues in Hungarian waters
In Hungary, too, the active ingredients of various medications are discharged continuously into the environment with wastewater, so they can now be detected in surface and underground waters as well as in soils.
What can we do against pharmaceutical residues in our waters?
After being introduced into human and animal organisms, some pharmaceutical compounds are secreted via urine unchanged, and then, through wastewater, those compounds may reach surface waters that serve as drinking water supplies, representing a risk for both aquatic ecosystems and for the purity of drinking water.
Microplastics from an unexpected source
We've known for a long time that plastic food packaging, wearing car tyres and clothing made of synthetic fibres are all sources of microplastic pollution. However, a new study has identified a new source of pollution in our kitchens, or more precisely in our teacups.
Steroids in the water?
Despite the continuous development of wastewater treatment technologies, the complete removal of synthetic pharmaceuticals using the three-step method currently in use is yet to be achieved. A number of researchers are working to improve the efficiency of the removal of these molecules from the present value of 10 to 30 percent.

Neil Young & Crazy Horse: 'Americana' Album Review
Summary: An underwhelming addition to Young's legacy.
Listen To: 'Jesus' Chariot (She'll Be Coming Round The Mountain)'; 'Wayfarin' Stranger'; 'God Save The Queen'
Avoid: 'Oh Susannah'; 'Tom Dula'; 'Get A Job'
Get It: Here
With this being the 34th studio effort by Neil Young, you tend to go into listening to this with a fairly good idea of what to expect. And as the album consists of covers you would be forgiven for assuming that you know what's coming.
But that's not the way Young and Crazy Horse have done this album. Young, before the album's release, told 'American Songwriter' that "every one of these songs have verses that have been ignored...I moved them away from that gentler interpretation. With new melodies and arrangements, we could use the folk process to invoke the original meanings".
Young's interpretation of the songs on 'Americana' keep the audience guessing with its experimental folk-grunge style and use of lost lyrics that make the songs so different that they are incomparable to the best-known versions.
One such cover is the second track on the album, 'Clementine'. The song is a version of 'Oh My Darling, Clementine' but it lacks the trademark chorus melody that hooks listeners. Young makes the song his own by including verses omitted from many other versions, drastically changing the arrangement and the chrous and by stretching it out to approximately six minutes in length. And due to these changes, it becomes overwhelmingly mediocre.
It is Young's determination to make these songs his own that proves to be the downfall of this album. Although it is good that Young is attempting to do the songs his way, the songs are a fundamental part of American history and the original versions are so deeply engraved into the minds of listeners that these songs are not easy to accept. This isn't helped by the fact that, although the musicianship is of high quality, it is hard to shake the feeling that this entire album was recorded in one take.
Another downfall is that Young stretches out some of the songs a bit too far. With his reinvention of the songs into his own style, the songs sadly seem to drag on a bit too long and begin to all meld into one never-ending track. This isn't helped by the jam-like vibe that the album gives off, due in no part to the introduction to opening track 'Oh Susannah'.
The final fault with this album is that it is impossible to find a point or purpose for the song selection. There seems to be no consistency between songs; almost as if Young is spontaneously bursting into song and Crazy Horse are simply following his lead. And no matter how hard we try, we just cannot wrap our heads around why Young selected 'God Save Our Queen' to feature on an album that
Despite the album seeming like an endless jam session, a few nuggets of gold can be found in amongst the waves of messy sound. These are all located towards the end of the album.
'Jesus' Chariot' is possibly the finest track on the album, featuring a phenomenal vocal performance by Young and an astounding arrangement with a colossal sound that breathes new life into one of the best known songs of all time. It's place on the album (after filler track 'High Flyin' Bird') helps to emphasise the brilliance of the track.
'Wayfarin' Stranger' features some fantastic guitar work and amazing vocal delivery by Young. Although it slows down the pace of the album after 'Jesus' Chariot' and 'This Land Is Your Land', it does so in a brilliant way that stays true to the original sentiment of the song and also builds for the album's closer.
'God Save Our Queen' is an odd choice of a song to include on this album, one that we cannot logically explain or justify. But it provides the perfect close to the album with beautiful harmonies and driving drums that allow the song to stand out and close the album with a wondrous crescendo.
Yet despite these golden moments there is something missing: a purpose. And this lack of purpose plagues the album from start to finish. It is not a bad album musically; the instrumentation is exceptional. But the feeling that it was a one take recording, the removal of several key elements and melodies in tracks and the way that the whole thing blends together makes it feel like a pointless, throwaway album by a pub band. This one is only for hardcore fans. Or those eager to waste money.

Brothers in farms
Two Byfield brothers settled on the upper reaches of Wooroloo Brook to farm, a third set up a steam sawmill once the Eastern Railway made the area more accessible. Byfield's Mill was managed by yet another Byfield brother. It became an official stop on the Eastern line, attracting more orchardists and farmers. The name changed to Wooroloo in 1897 when the mill stop was raised to booking station status.
Camp centre
Extensive grazing leases covered much of the area before 1900 but by the early 1900s the focus turned to timber. Wooroloo was the centre for sleeper hewers and charcoal burners camping in the surrounding bush. A second sawmill opened nearby at Werribee and a third to the north of the settlement in 1905. And, during WW1, local Karri helped solve the shortage of axe handles, usually imported from America. Using a steam engine from one of the closed sawmills, the Buffalo Handle Factory produced handles until the 1940s.
State Sanatorium
Beechina Hill was chosen as the site for a sanatorium to treat 'consumptives', as they were called, partly due to the supposedly beneficial effects of the fresh air at that elevation. Patients were suffering from what we now call Tuberculosis or TB and, since the first effective drug against it was only discovered in 1944, many lie buried in the adjacent cemetery. Opened in 1915, the 'Sanny' became a general hospital when the Perth Chest Hospital opened in 1958 but in 1970 it was converted to a minimum security prison.

Wooroloo is the local spelling of a word with Aboriginal origins. In 1836 James Drummond noted Aboriginal people referred to certain pools in a brook that joined the Avon River, as "Worrilow'. Not far from these pools, plans for a townsite to be called Worriloo were drawn up in 1841. The townsite never developed. Further upstream a well to supply teamsters was known as Warriloo Well. Lands Department plans were amended to Wooroloo in 1903.

V erna Cash has struggled with bipolar and schizophrenia disorders since she was 16 years old. In spite of it, she managed to live a normal life until her mid-30s when she fell into depression and started going in and out of the hospital.
She started attending CRC group therapy in March 2007, which Verna said helped her to learn how to think positively, as well as to identify and control the panic attacks she would experience. "You have to think about why you are having it. What is wrong with me? Once you find out, you can control it and take it away," she said. She said the CRC staff has been very supportive. "When I am having a struggle, I know I can come here, and I will have someone to talk to. They help you to feel better," said Verna.

Standing on the summit of Island peak for the 7th time in my life was a privilege and hard earned this year. Each year the mountain is a little different. Depending on the day we climb we can have more snow, no snow just ice, wind, searing heat and or chilling temperatures. Island peak is a challenge whatever way you look at it. Island peak is not a 'trekking peak'.
The Everest region was rocked by the earthquake on the 25th April this year, five days after our summit of Island peak only a short distance from Mt. Everest. Our Island peak team were back in Kathmandu when the earthquake rocked us. Before the earthquake hit, Kathmandu and the Everest region were experiencing strange weather. It was a lot colder than normal and I think it snowed 12 out of the 19 days we were in the mountains. A foot of snow in Lobuche, just below Everest base camp at 4,900m/ 16,076ft on the 13th April. Higher winds, challenging conditions each day. The usually more stable and warmer weather must have been somewhere else.
Once again I met many people who were not able to achieve their goal of standing on the summit of Island peak. With shocking preparation, little or no understanding of the acclimatization process, or what the mountain had in store for them. Trying to summit from the base camp, not using a high camp and with a total lack of understanding of what it would be like climbing this mountain. CLICK HERE to watch from footage from 2014. We will edit some of our 2015 footage and post it soon.
People invest their money and time in trying to climb Island peak and cutting corners. Do not cut corners and waste your money. Do it the right way with professionals who have the experience, we can prepare you for the trip and give you the best chance at the summit. This year 7 out of 9 people make it to the summit of Island peak. Last year everyone made it on all our climbs.
We have the team and acclimatization schedule in place to give you the best shot at the summit. We spend 5 days acclimatizing and training for Island peak. So many people were rolling into Island peak base camp, resting for a few hours and then trying to summit from 5,100m/ 16,732ft base camp to the summit at 6,189m/ 20,305ft on steep terrain. This is possible but not the best way to climb and most people are failing to reach the summit. What a waste of your time and money to come all that way, have done all the training and fail to save a few dollars and cut off those vital acclimatization days.
Our video will show you how intense the final climb is to the summit at 20,000 feet. Climbing Island peak is not easy. If you fail to prepare yourself properly and give yourself the best chance, you will fail to climb this mountain. Get in touch with us and climb it the right way with the right team. CLICK HERE and read about what it was like in Kathmandu when the 25th April earthquake hit. CLICK HERE and read other blogs from people who were on our recent trips.
Climbing Island peak in 2015 was great. Why not join one of our other teams in October in join me in 2016. CONTACT US.

The Department of Chemistry was established in 1981 with an intake of 9 students in the Government College, Mangalore. In 1982, the department was shifted to university campus, Mangalagangotri and in 1986 to the present science faculty building. The department started M.Sc. course in Applied Chemistry in the year 1996 and M.Sc. Organic Chemistry course in the year 2007. Presently, the department is running three M.Sc. Courses in Chemistry, Applied Chemistry and Organic Chemistry with a combined intake of about 140 students and a PhD programme in Chemistry. As on today the Department has produced over 1286 M.Sc., 50 M.Phil and 239 Ph.D. graduates. Presently about 70 Research Scholars are working for their Doctoral Degree. The Department has also contributed to science significantly by carrying out research and published over 2492 research papers in peer reviewed national and international journals of reputation and presented about 2000 research articles in national and international Conferences. Mangalore University stands 24th among the top 50 institutes of higher learning in the country with H-index 72 in which major contribution is from chemistry towards the H-index of the University.
The faculty have received several prestigious fellowships and awards in recognition of their research contributions. They include Alexander von Humbolt Research Fellowship of Germany, JSPS Research Fellowship of Japan, Commonwealth Research Fellowship of U.K., Post-Doctoral Research Fellowships from US Research foundations and Korean Federation of Science & Technology, Raman Post-Doctoral fellowship in USA, 'Dr. Kalpana Chawla Young Women Scientist' State Award of Karnataka, 'Best teacher' award of Mangalore University etc.

Run The Jewels Brings Joy To The World By Releasing 'RTJ3' Weeks Early
John GottyFacebookTwitterManaging Hip-Hop Editor
Run The Jewels just made Christmas a whole lot better for rap fans out there. The duo decided to share their highly anticipated project, RTJ3, a few weeks earlier than anticipated to bring joy to the world.
"F*ck it. We couldn't help ourselves," the group said via press release. "It just feels right. After a crazy fucking year and with a full tour about to set off we asked ourselves what we were waiting for… and we just couldn't come up with a great answer. You've been with us since we started this thing and its made such a huge difference in our lives to have your energy and love. Thank you."
They continued, "So as a gift to all of you who have allowed us to continue to do what we love: RTJ3. We busted our asses on this one and we think we made something special this round. Grab it for free, buy it on any of the digital platforms you like or stream it. Physical copies will still be dropping in January as announced but until then: enjoy and we will see you on the road!"
The follow-up to 2014's Run The Jewels 2 was originally slated to release on January 13th but who's complaining? By dropping the project now, it means fans have a few extra days to learn all the song lyrics when El-P, Killer Mike and DJ Trackstar descend on cities across the map for their upcoming tour, which kicks off January 11th at Electric Factory in Philadelphia (additional dates can be found here).
The 14-song project includes the early release tracks "2100," "Talk to Me," "Panther Like a Panther (I'm the Shit)" and "Legend Has It." For RTJ3, Jamie and Mike are joined by the likes of Danny Brown, Boots, TV On The Radio's Tunde Adebimpe, Trina, Dungeon Fam alum Joi Gilliam and saxophonist Kamasi Washington.
Stream RT3 below and pick it up on iTunes.

Home run in sevenths sends Boulder City over Pahrump Valley softball
Tuesday's 3-1 loss to Boulder City might have said more about the Pahrump Valley softball team than many of their wins.
By Tom Rysinski Pahrump Valley Times
Horace Langford Jr./Pahrump Valley Times Pahrump Valley senior Kathy Niles slides safely into third base during Tuesday's home game against Boulder City.
Horace Langford Jr./Pahrump Valley Times Jackie Stobbe keeps her eye on the ball Tuesday during Pahrump Valley's 3-1 home loss to Boulder City.
The Trojans had a strong outing by pitcher Amaya Mendoza, scratched out a run in the top of the first and played strong defense in their final game before league play begins Monday.
In a game featuring teams that could meet in the postseason, Summer Coyle hit a dramatic three-run home run in the top of the seventh inning to boost the visiting Eagles to a 3-1 victory over the Trojans, who had led 1-0 since the first inning.
"The defense was great. I was telling them that if they played defense like that at Majestic they would have been 5-0," said Pahrump Valley coach Eli Armendariz, referring to the 44-team tournament at Majestic Park in Las Vegas last weekend.
The Trojans opened the bottom of the first inning by scoring without a hit. Ashleigh Murphy led off by reaching on catcher's interference, stealing second, taking third on a passed ball and scoring on a groundout to shortstop.
And that's the way it stayed for a long time. The crisp, fast-moving game remained 1-0 inning after inning, as Mendoza tamed the Eagles until the seventh.
"She was in command the whole game," Armendariz said.
Unfortunately, Boulder City's Bailey Bennett-Jordan was outstanding as well, tossing a four-hitter. Through six, Mendoza allowed five. Then it all unraveled, and quickly.
Senior Lily Osman opened the top of the seventh with a double to the fence. Ashley Wishard followed with a single past shortstop, with Osman appearing to interfere with the defender on her way to third but no call was made, drawing the ire of Armendariz.
But Osman was erased on a perfectly executed defense against the double steal. With Wishard heading toward second, Osman wandered indecisively off third, and the Trojans recorded a big pickoff. For the moment, momentum seemed to be back on their side.
Wishard held at second on a fly ball to left field, and Pahrump Valley was one out away from a big victory against a team with a winning record. But Coyle was having none of it, belting a 2-2 pitch over the fence in center field for a dramatic three-run home run.
The stunned Trojans brought the tying run to a plate when a collision in the outfield allowed Samantha Riding to reach second base. But Bennett-Jordan got a strikeout to end it.
Now Pahrump Valley takes a 10-7 record in Sunset League play, where they went 10-0 last season and are expected to do well again. But the league's overall lack of strength offers some concerns to Armendariz, who rightly worries about his team's mental approach against inferior competition.
"We go against a team like Desert Pines, which hasn't won in three or four years, and we're like, 'OK, we're here. Roll over,'" he said. "We can't do that. We've got to go and take care of business right from the get-go."
Only four of the Trojans' remaining 14 games will be nonleague contests with Legacy, Bonanza, Sierra Vista and Durango on the schedule. All four are road games.
Before any of those bus rides, Pahrump Valley opens defense of its Sunset League title Monday at home against Mojave.

The Beaver Meadow Chapel
Everybody needs a friend who can lend a hand in time of need. And if you're a building – patiently abiding and not seeming to change – it may be hard to find such a pal. Beaver Meadow Chapel, located eponymously at the intersection of Beaver Meadow Road and Chapel Hill Road in West Norwich, found its friend in the nick of time: Donna Wheeler has become the champion of the charming building and has led the drive to raise funds for a highly necessary new roof.
The roof is truly in wretched shape, with shingles missing and eroding away.… Read More
Forever Feminist: Beth Dingman and Claudia Lamperti
Claudia and Beth at Big Bend National Park in Texas
I think today it's easier to have the label lesbian than feminist," says Claudia McKay Lamperti. She and her partner, Beth Dingman, are now retired from owning and running New Victoria Printers and Publishers. Founded as a print shop in Lebanon in 1975, New Vic embodied the strong feminist political convictions of its founders, and the belief that "the power of the press belongs to those who own it."
Claudia grew up on the west coast. She met and married John Lamperti in California, and moved to the Upper Valley in 1962 when he came to Dartmouth to teach mathematics.… Read More

Judge Taylor Heaton sworn in to preside over Smith County 475th District Court
By Erin Wides
Published: Jan. 2, 2023 at 6:26 PM CST
TYLER, Texas (KLTV) - A judge has been sworn into the new 475th District Court in Smith County. Judge Taylor Heaton is now presiding over the new courtroom. Governor Greg Abbott appointed Heaton to the court in early December.
Heaton has served as an Assistant District Attorney for the Smith County District Attorney's Office for over 12 years.
This is the first time in 38 years that Smith County has welcomed a new district court since the creation of the 321st District Court in 1985.
The court will handle felony cases, and juvenile cases, the offenders which Smith County District Attorney Jacob Putman said are the ones that have the most hope of rehabilitation.
"It's a court that's going to handle two different extremes. Both people who need to be punished and people who need to be turned around and saved," Putman said.
As Smith County continues to grow, there's been a need for another courtroom to keep cases going through.
Heaton, his wife, and three children stood by his side as he took the oath.
"It is the honor of my life to be able to preside over the juvenile court. I look forward to speaking into their life and helping put parents back in the rightful place as parents over the juveniles that come in front of my court," Heaton said. "A core value that I have, and that our court has had in the County Court at Law #2 is that what we do professionally affects people very personally."
Heaton is also a member of the State Bar of Texas and served in different roles for the Smith County Young Lawyers Association.
The term is set to expire on December 31, 2024, or until his successor is duly elected and qualified.

Title IX Covers Sexual Orientation Discrimination
Last month, U.S. District Judge Dean Pregerson ruled, in a potentially significant decision, that sexual orientation discrimination claims should be treated as sex discrimination claims under Title IX of the Civil Rights Act of. The decision is in line with an Equal Employment Opportunity Commission ruling last summer that held that discrimination against an individual based on sexual orientation is "sex discrimination" and therefore prohibited under Title VII (a similar federal law that prohibits sex discrimination workplaces).
Haley Videckis and Layana White are two former members of Pepperdine University's women's basketball team. In 2014, they sued Pepperdine for allegedly harassing and discriminating against them in an effort to force Plaintiffs to quit the team because the team's coach and others on the staff concluded they were lesbians and were dating. They brought a number of claims, including several for violation of Title IX.
Title IX prohibits, among other things, prohibits sex discrimination in federally funded education programs and activities receiving Federal funds. 20 U.S.C. § 1681(a). Title IX's prohibition of discrimination "on the basis of sex" encompasses sex in the biological sense, gender, and gender stereotypes. (Schwenk v. Hartford, 204 F.3d 1187, 1202 (9th Cir. 2000); Price Waterhouse v. Hopkins, 490 U.S. 228, 250-51 (1989); Nichols v. Azteca Rest. Enters., Inc., 256 F.3d 864, 874-75 (9th Cir. 2001).) Prior to the Court's ruling in December, no Court in the Ninth Circuit had held that Title IX covers sexual orientation discrimination, however.
In ruling on Pepperdine's motion to dismiss the Title IX claims, the Court observed that "that the distinction [between gender stereotyping and discrimination based on sexual orientation] is illusory and artificial, and that sexual orientation discrimination is not a category distinct from sex or gender discrimination." Consequently, the Court concluded that "claims of discrimination based on sexual orientation are covered by Title VII and IX, but not as a category of independent claims separate from sex and gender stereotype. Rather, claims of sexual orientation discrimination are gender stereotype or sex discrimination claims."
In doing so, Pregerson acknowledged the EEOC's July 2015 decision, Baldwin v. Foxx, in which the EEOC concluded that, under Title VII, "an employee could show that the sexual orientation discrimination he or she experienced was sex discrimination because it involved treatment that would not have occurred but for the individual's sex; because it was based on the sex of the person(s) the individual associates with; and/or because it was premised on the fundamental sex stereotype, norm, or expectation that individuals should be attracted only to those of the opposite sex." Pregerson stated his ruling was "in line" with the EEOC's decision.
Many states (22 at last count), including California, already prohibit discrimination based on sexual orientation. Pregerson laid out a compelling for protecting gay, lesbian, and bisexual people under existing federal law. While federal law and the federal courts may still be working thorough the issue, employers must be proactive in implementing and enforcing policies prohibiting workplace discrimination based on sexual orientation.
The case is Videckis v. Pepperdine University.

A Euro Trip" may really take the crown for getting the most 'bucket listed' item in the world. She mentioned that if a single has never travelled alone, they could start tiny if they like, for example, by taking the train from Vancouver to Portland and spending a handful of days exploring that city. Even though you might be eligible for a seniors discount in Australia, when acquiring Eurail train tickets, you need to have to buy a complete fare ticket, as you are not classified as a senior in European nations (only residents are).I avoided them like the plague on my very first backpacking trip. You can simply book most regional European trains straight at the station a handful of days ahead without having any troubles (barring a main vacation). It's frequently more affordable (although often slower) to take regional trains, but you may discover some beautiful train routes.Fall bookings for all-inclusive trips were soft, says Jerrett. He says men and women were starting to notice that prices had been inching larger than last year. He suggests the empty flights will quickly be a tourist's gain and predicts airlines will scramble to sell seats.Frequently occasions, you can uncover deals for two or more individuals. If you plan to travel Europe on a budget alone you might think about finding a travel group or even just a pal that you can split the price of items with. Not only does traveling with a buddy mean you save, but it also provides you an individual to share your adventure with.Mark Felgar, who runs GreedyRates , a website which compares credit card rates and delivers, says try to stay away from exchanging currency at the airport or at a hotel.

While Europe may possibly be little, every place has so much to see and do. Being a bit a lot more selective with the locations you have on your itinerary which means you can stay an additional day or two in each spot can be so considerably more rewarding.Don't forget to bring a trustworthy external telephone charger. A smartphone is important when travelling. Even if you just want to keep in touch with buddies and household or discover your way around and use the very best travel app -), a charger is of course indispensable. By the way, you can swiftly charge your telephone on most high-speed trains, as most of them have electrical sockets in the seats.You know that annual credit card charge you happen to be charged? Far more than most likely it is covering some travel perks, says Felgar. A lot of Canadians aren't conscious that their credit cards offer insurance coverage for trip cancellation, automobile rental and well being insurance coverage.
